Discipline Is Destiny

“and that's what you have guys like Ryan holiday did he come on here yeah where you have guys that are talk that talk a lot about like that moment where you choose between what's comfortable yes or what is easy and this other like more long-term thing”

“I have a line in 'Discipline and Destiny' because I was very impressed with Queen Elizabeth II.”

“I come up with the concept, like, hey, I'd love to do a video about, I don't know, Ryan's new book. And we're like, okay cool, we can't call it 'Discipline is Destiny' because that would be a bit weird.”

“So again, the downside is, 'Courage' came out; it did okay. 'Discipline' came out; it did spectacularly.”

“Yeah, I—I have a part of it in, uh, in discipline as destiny; he says for six years now I’ve been hopelessly afflicted, made worse by the senseless doctors for year two, deceived with hopes of improvement, finally compelled to face the prospect of a lasting malady whose cure will take years and perhaps be impossible.”

“So again the downside is, uh, Courage came out, it did okay, Discipline came out, it did spectacular. So maybe I could have been selling Justice for more, but um all of that was irrelevant because I was just in the middle of writing the book.”

“I mean, I just mean by even those old metrics like, okay, my last book 'Discipline Is Destiny' is the book that I have checked on the sales the least, where I actively made decisions that made hitting bestseller lists less likely.”

“Yeah, there—I have this story in 'Discipline is Destiny' but the Toni Morrison thing was she had to get up and do her writing before she heard the word “mom” in the morning or she...”

“If you, I would not recommend writing a book called 'The Obstacle is the Way,' a book called 'Ego is the Enemy,' a book called 'Stillness is the Key,' a book called 'Courage is Calling,' or 'Discipline is Destiny.' Because then people expect you to be all those things, which is of course impossible.”

“That’s why I open 'Discipline's Destiny' with the story of Lou Gehrig, who has the longest streak in the history of baseball until it’s broken by Cal Ripken.”

“As a person who has found a lot of healing and recovery in the 12-step rooms, I was very surprised to see you write about it in both Stillness is the Key and Discipline is Destiny. So I'm curious as to how that came about or why you were inspired to do that because the only other one I found”

“Ryan holiday's book from last year Discipline is Destiny the biggest takeaway that I took from that conversation was that without a goal without an ordinating principle there can be no discipline before that”

“For everyone listening, I encourage you to explore Ryan Holiday’s latest book 'Discipline is Destiny: The Power of Self-Control.' And of course, any of the other books that we've recommended before on the show.”

“There's a story I tell in the discipline book about Cato, one of his heroes.”

“at this great chat with Ryan holiday about his new book which is to do with discipline”

“Ah, yeah, yeah, that was in your book about discipline.”

“Thank you very much, Steven So everyone should buy 'Discipline is Destiny.'”

“and also because B you have a book coming out discipline is Destiny”
